Absolutely agreed, but Vance will get Trump's full backing for whatever that's worth! It just would nice not to have to consume a full bottle of Pepto Bismol when voting this next time! But if the Dems put up Kamala, Gavin, Buttigieg, AOC or any of the other clowns they're considering; it looks like I'll be voting R again unless they totally screw up their nomination. Rubio/DeSantis would be my favorite ticket but as we all know, Vance is the heir apparent...

Article 88 - Officers Article 134 - Enlisted

RuAF Su-35 (shot?) down https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=RzBcFdznH7I Unconfirmed, 3x F-16s and a Patriot worked together to do it.

Good thing I’m enlisted 😎 F*** the president and the establishment! Totally kidding, I mostly like the guy’s work and it’s been a HELL of a lot better in the military since Biden and that dipshit secretary of defense left. Pete isn’t perfect tho.

And yet here you are defending them. "Human animals" is pretty generous for what those people did on October 7th. No, the children of Gaza did not participate in the rape and massacre, but they also weren't targeted. They were positioned like sacrifices by their parents and their parents' friends to make sure they would die when the Israelis attacked. "Human Animals" does not come close to describing that level of depravity. You can whine and moan all day long about the asymmetry and unfairness of the situation, but there's no amount of poverty or oppression that justifies sacrificing your children. If your moral compass is so defunct that you can't wrap your head around that, honestly it makes the rest of your positions a lot more understandable. It doesn't make them any less wrong, but at least there is an underlying consistency that can be predicted. “We love death like our enemies love life.” - Former Hamas Prime Minister Ismail Haniyeh Killing monsters is never an atrocity (or genocide), no matter how many of them you have to kill, and no matter how many of their children they hold up in front of your weapons. It's ugly and tragic, and an inescapable feature of war for the entirety of human history.

You do realize that being in uniform is not the issue...right? Under Article 88 commissioned officers are legally prohibited from using "contemptuous words" against the President, Vice President, Congress, and other key government officials, in uniform or out. Sometimes I wonder if people realize what they signed up for and the rights they no longer have. This site will never out anyone and extreme to say, but those on active duty who are posting against the above on this forum are technically breaking the UCMJ.

I'm not so sure about that. I don't think Vance is winning any favor with Trump over the Iran negotiations. That's not even necessarily a critique of Vance, but Trump believes himself to be the world's best negotiator, so if he sends Vance to Iran and Vance comes back with nothing but trash, especially when Vance is the voice of anti-interventionalism in the administration, I think he is going to get cross with Trump. And to be clear, I think literally anybody, no matter how good, who ends up disagreeing with Trump on something will be in his bad graces. But Trump was never an isolationist, so it's just more likely that he and Rubio will be aligned more on foreign policy than he and Vance. Also, as we learned with Obama, the power of the charismatic president does not transfer over well to their endorsements. So Vance may be the heir apparent, but Rubio is still going to be the more marketable politician.

Did Putin win yet?

So using an outdated scoring key they security forces actually scored HIGHER...dear god that's epic!

I don't know any of the tech billionaires who believe the crazy stuff and believe in God. So while Peter Thiel has a couple screws loose, I don't believe Vance has the same pathology. Also I don't want my politicians to be blue collar, I want them to have blue collar backgrounds. Vance fits that perfectly. He's for damn sure not a tourist 😂🤣. I find his foreign policy however to be mostly incoherent/irrational, far too close to Tucker Carlson. And since when is going to Yale bad? If he went because Daddy was an alumni, that would be one thing. I've got my fingers crossed for Rubio. He's been the surprise hero of the administration.

Well this explains it…

Sure wish there was a difference anymore.

So….. a democrat

Sure seems like an attention-grabbing “stunt” to boost recognition for future political ambitions. Or he could just be that stupid… but likely both.

$3.50 says he runs for political office.
